I combine approaches like participatory design, asset-based community development, and appreciative inquiry to collaboratively explore how to better serve more people in reaching their goals. - blended approach
TRAUMA-INFORMED PRACTICES
I create safe, compassionate spaces that honor different lived experiences and prioritize well-being in all interactions.
